I just wish they had a good steering wheel and hopefully the interior fabric meets the quality of the price of the trucks.

Yep...but they're fully loaded. A base Rubicon with no options is barely that.

The Rubicon has WAY more offroad tech than the TuRD Pro, but you're certainly paying for it.
If you DGAF about tech and features, a base Rubicon is an OK buy when compared to everything else. I still don't miss any of the features that I passed on in my Rubicon. Screen/audio LEDs leather safety features

I have an idea. Let's shit all over Fled's new cement mixer.
Fled, someone in my hood has a 4R in that semen-t color and it looks as hell I am legit of it, lol. He has some extra broverlander roof rack and ditch lights and stuff. Ditch lights might actually come in handy in Philly doe.

I’ve thought about grabbing a set of BD pro’s for ditch lights. A nice extra blast of Sauron for the dumbfucks who can’t turn off their high beams.Johnny_P wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2019 12:21 pm I have an idea. Let's shit all over Fled's new cement mixer.

As a bonus you also get a leak free roof with the JGC Trailcock along with 21st century doors, suspension, and interior panels.CaleDeRoo wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2019 12:21 pmNVM now I want a Trailcock version with srt seats and air suspenderz[user not found] wrote: ↑Fri Nov 08, 2019 12:19 pm

Decided to throw that cash at a 2020 Taco TRD Off Road. Cement. 14% off MSRP. 75% residual on the brand new 20s (15k miles/36 months) and a good enough MF makes the payment less than a 19. Acceptable trade number given the condition and a from an old acquaintance makes this doable.

The 2020s finally feel relevant, with the new gauges and info stuff.
I haven't driven a TuRD off road with sway bar discos but they're supposedly better to drive, almost impossible to find used.
Expensive and poor fuel economy though.
